    Pretty mediocre TBH.

    Isn’t breadtube for leftist content? This was just… really meh. Not particularly thought provoking, and definitely not leftist.

        No disrespect, but seems like most of Lemmy disagrees with you.

        Am I wrong about BreadTube not being for this content? Unless you can convince me this video wasn’t about liberals and conservatives… No.

        BreadTube is for leftist content, and this is not leftist content.

        BreadTube or LeftTube is a loose and informal group of online content creators who create video content, including video essays and livestreams, from socialist, social democratic, communist, anarchist, and other left-wing perspectives.

          That was a joke relating to the title of the video. But the fact that your takeaways from the video were that it concerns liberals versus conservatives and that it’s not leftist media, shows why the message of the video is more important than ever. This message is for all ideological biases. If Lemmy disagrees with the video, it means it’s hitting a nerve and thus more important than public opinion.

            For what it’s worth, I never said it was liberals versus conservatives, I said it was about liberals and conservatives, because those are the terms Van Jones chose to use, and the groups/labels he chose to focus on.

            I don’t think it’s people disagreeing with the video. I don’t disagree with the video. He’s right. I think Van Jones is essentially right. But it’s boring, I’ve heard it before, I know all the stuff he said. And maybe I’m naive to believe that most people here, in this community, have already heard all the things he’s saying, but I do.

            But most of all, it’s not BreadTube. I don’t think people are disagreeing, and I don’t think it touched a nerve. I think that like me, most downvotes are people saying this doesn’t belong here.

            I’m not ideologically opposed to any of this. But it’s just not BreadTube.

            Edit: thing about nerve touching 🤷

    I didn’t expect this to be hosted by Big Think.

    No complaints though. It’s not a bad video, although I’m not sure if all liberals will be this introspective

      Conservatives may be hateful, but at least they recognize there is a problem. Liberals are in denial about their roles in society.
